I guess most would agree that under 6 feet, Calvin Murphy was the best. 6 feet and under and it goes to either Allen Iverson or Isiah Thomas.

But it gets tricky when you bring it up to 6'4 and under. My friend swears on Jerry West. But are I think there are better options. What you guys think?

it makes Kobe look better if he is not 6'6", and yep he's like 6'4" thats why jordan is bigger than him when they stand next to eachother.

They look pretty much the same and Jordan's a bit in front of Kobe in both pics.

However, Charles Barkley is not 6'4... with shoes. I remember him being listed at 6'4 and only 6'6 with shoes.

MJ is clearly infront of Kobe in both pictures and the first picture they are both leaning over. Can we not turn every ****ing thread into something about Kobe.

Actually the mugshot shows him at 6'8" on the side profile, then 6-7 on the mugshot.

what is wrong with some posters. Just use the height they were measured at while playing. It's not like they only measure these players once in their careers :confusedshrug: and fck that 'with or without shoes' bs, none of these guys ever played without sneakers on. :oldlol:

There is no possible way Allen Iverson is the best ever under 6'4.

Thomas, West, and Payton are all ahead of him, to you mentioning Iverson, please get off the drugz.

I pick West here, followed by Thomas, then Payton.

So one of, if not the best scorers of his generation, doesnt deserved to be mentioned? Is there anything that AI can do right? I wonder how in the hell he is succesfull because according to the majority on ISH, he cant pass,shoot, or play defense. Explain.

Honorable mention, sure, why not.

But he isnt the best under 6'4 whatsoever.

And I never mentioned any of the stuff AI haters say, like no D, cant pass, or shoot....

Umm isnt Barkley 6"8 in that mugshot? Every players height is inflated, stop trying to make other players sound better by deflating their height, Chuck towers over Kenny Smith whos billed as 6"3, hes also significantly taller than D-Wade whos billed at 6"4... I dont see why Chucks real height is always mentioned when every other player isnt their billed height either.. Its common knowledge that every NBA players height is inflated.

Thread should be : "Best NBA player of all time billed as 6"4 and under?"

06-30-2009, 12:58 PM
funny how few guys mentioned DT. there's not a defender in this world that could stop him off the dribble and his jumpshot is as deadly as anybody's

in his best year in the league he averaged 27/5/5 on .521 shooting in 80 games. how many guards (besides MJ) could do that? of course there was no 3 pt line (which was a good thing IMO).

as far as West I always considered him 6'5". if not he belongs near the top of any list in which he fits the category.

Kobe is closer than 6'7 lol then anything else.

jordan is standing IN FRONT OF KOBE..I took a picture with a friend who is 5'9 and he LOOKS as tall as me because i was standing just half a foot behind him and i'm 6'1.

In another picture..when we were standing more or less on an equal plane..we both looked our true height.

Retards who post pics like the jordan kobe one (or for that matter, people whose pics of players heads at RIM level when they are clearly not; cough lebron) should die.
